lead expansion cinch
(OP)
Does anyone know where to find any information on a lead expansion cinch? I have a submittal that has these in it, but the submittal (and the contractor) have no information on them other than, "they're common for this application". That's great, but I'd still like to see something on them.

(lead expansion cinch = fancy name for a masonry anchor?)

is what I meant but it seems moot at this point. McMaster-Carr also has the same thing that jike posted, along with several other styles of the same concept.
I agree that it should be pretty trivial for your contractor to provide some detail on this - even a sample would have gone a long way to get past what appears to be a simple issue of you not being familiar with the contractor's vernacular (no slight intended to you).

Go to Lowesr and Home Depot: You should know your load, there are tables in the hardware section showing how many pounds different hangers can hold up. These are usually sold for a shear load (a vertical weight like a picture or cabinet) hanging on a wall.
It sounds like you are really worried about pullout load though.
You will likely need to either go to a hollow wall type anchor or (through wall) bolt and nut, or put two or three lead anchors in your wall and test them yourself.
Given a manufactor, call him and ask. Hilti sells anchor bolts and tie-down grout/epoxy for anchoring vertical loads that I've used. Their "vertical" pull-out anchor bolts information will be valid for your "horizontal" pull-out needs.
